Bonafidestack 4th Gear October 10, 2013 Share October 10, 2013 I always have this mindset when it comes to buy things, products and services. Especially when i am servicing my car or intending to upgrade some of the parts. When you are looking for cheap and good, it will not be fast. when you are looking for good and fast, it will not be cheap. when you are looking for fast and cheap, it will not be good.

Watwheels Supersonic October 10, 2013 Share October 10, 2013 (edited) Ppl have the same mindset for everything, not just car servicing. I dun work in the auto industry but when ppl come to my workplace they expect ppl to work on their issue immediately. I will tell them to look around, if there's someone free I will get him to work on it. Dan you will see their disappointed face. The next thing they will ask is when they can collect their things. I will reply, "when I call you". LoL... Ppl dun understand there's a queue system even though there's no human queue. And when I ask whether they want to pay extra for priority they are not willing. There you go for your 3 theory on why things work this way. Do not just look from your narrow point of view. My 2cents in return.

When they ask when can I have it back, they would expect us to be able to give a somewhat close estimation so they can do further plannings. I always believe if you give me a est time, I wouldn't bother you. But if otherwise, I wouldn't know and I keep hanging around to indirectly rush you.
